Announcing The 2016-17 Season
JOURNEYS EARTHLY AND DIVINE
Join us for the San Francisco Girls Chorus 2016-2017 Season! Subscriptions and single tickets to our concerts can be purchased through City Box Office at 415-392-4400 or by visiting http://www.cityboxoffice.com/SFGC.
Coming off the groundbreaking performance at the NY PHILHARMONIC BIENNIAL at Lincoln Center in June, the San Francisco Girls Chorus presents a season that celebrates the artistic breadth of our young singers, who show audiences at every performance that young women’s voices can give utterance to the whole range of human experience.
This season, we explore the vagaries and foibles of love, the deep solemnity of spiritual devotion, the ecstasy of the natural world and the excitement of joining together with others to make joyful noise in community. We welcome new friends to share the stage with us, including rising star mezzo-soprano Laurie Rubin, bagpiper/composer Matthew Welch, and the esteemed Trinity Youth Chorus from Manhattan in their West Coast debut.
This season, we explore the vagaries and foibles of love, the deep solemnity of spiritual devotion, the ecstasy of the natural world and the excitement of joining together with others to make joyful noise in community. Our season looks to the British Isles and its generations of music traditions, in anticipation of our summer tour to England and Scotland. The variety of styles and musical languages that have come from this part of the world is redoubtable. A rich tapestry to explore – come join us!
